Right to Request Professional Qualifications

All parents and guardians have the right to request the professional qualifications of the teachers who instruct your child and the paraprofessionals, if any, who assist them. You may request the following information about each of your child’s classroom teachers and their paraprofessional assistants, if any:

  • Whether the teacher has met Illinois qualification and licensing criteria;
  • Whether the teacher is teaching under an emergency permit or other provisional status by which state licensing criteria have been waived;
  • Whether the teacher is teaching in the field of discipline of the certification of the teacher.
  • Whether any instructional aides or paraprofessionals provide services to your child and, if so, their qualifications.

Please contact the school office to receive this information.
